Dominionng:good thinking . But many would have given it innocently and never came back to tell the tale of what happened . But still u were a very very easy target, they could have arranged a meeting for u in a place u will feel secured before striking . U are a very lucky man. |

And the worst part of it , the idiot fit dey here dey read dis thread, my advice is let the client pay into your account first for commitment before going to the site for measurement or quotes, go with either 2 or 3 people and let them hang around while u go and meet the client, always gather enough details about the customer before involving in anything with a client , always keep in touch with your families and friends , I knew how I handled my recent client whose location was far from mine and he gave all details of his even before I agree to take the next move with him, always take your time to gather enough info before going to meet your client . May God protect us, Let's be more conscious and alert. God bless Nairaland and bless Seun |

But seriously guys I have been thinking about opening a private investigation agency here in Nigeria because none exists and our police units seem not to either know what they are doing or they are overwhelmed or just plain lazy. What do you think? Will it work down here? I read about criminal activities everywhere on NL and ita all a cry for help as far as I am concerned. What do u think? 11 Likes 4 Shares |

naijadeyhia: Sometimes the news we hear here can be quite scary and appalling at d same time. I wish I was in owerri and ds guy calls me. PLEASE if you receive call from this same guy just play along and inform the police or you can just coordinate some smart guys in your area not less than 4guys. He seems easy to track down and besides he is not smart at all. For as many that has paid into his account please drop the account name here for further profiling of the scammer. Drop all other relevant info here for some of us that might be interested in nabbing and putting a stop to this rubbish. 1 Like |

Gboliwe:I stated it categorically clear in my post that ppl should be very careful about posting“ sensitive personal information” on social media like nairaland. Some ppl go as far as posting their home address here on nairaland ,some ppl use their home as an office and yet post it here,I won't disclose much here about many cases with the police about missing ppl who got calls for supposed business meetings and never came back. Post business name,phone num and office contact address,never meet new business ppl alone,always meet in an open place if possible near law enforcement agents office or ppl . That was what I meant. Many ppl at times even post their pictures on the signatures with their phone numbers so that ppl will trust them . Ok oooo , let's just pray that ppl won't learn from our own downfall or experiences . |

This world is becoming too dangerous. I've met wonderful people via this forum, I've done business with very honest people and we still communicate. Even two of my colleagues in office came in through a one on one via this forum. In all we just have to be careful and seek God's guidance at all time. |

Re: My Experience With 'The Owerri Client' by cityAdventures: 10:36am On Jul 27, 2015 |
But I really dont even understand how a client can move you out of your base to a site without picking up your air fare and hotel expenses..is that how you guys do work? Once a client calls you to inspect a site outstation, he must foot, not your bus fare, but airfare. thats the fiest indiction of seriousness from his part and hotel expenses. atleast he must be sure of recouping all that money from you before he can embark on the task of spending that money to kindnap you. 1 Like |

Mine was at Badagry Lagos state. One Chukwudi kept disturbing me and insisted we meet. It was a thursday and I was foolish enough to go very early that I arrived at Aradagun, badagary not far from French Village around 8:45am, and took another bike inside. The bike man told me that the road leads to Shagamu, and kept telling me that the Shamude village im asked to come is about a mile inside. I was so stupid not to even smell a rat, but thought maybe the client was another novice sold a cheap property within the deepest part of Badagry (cause ive seen many cases like that before). The luckiest thing that happened was I didnt go with my car or they could have taken that too. I was made to sit inside a tiny golf with two men while one went to pulled out my 80k from my ATM. My watch, phones, and small laptop was taken from me. The trek I trek thgat day, I swear Jehovah witness people never trek am Since then, I've left Nairaland property section jejele, and disregard most of the phonecalls I get from Nairaland. I wanted to warn lawyer and create a post, but the mod and I are bitter enemies and he has a knack for deleting anything I post (for reasons hes too chicken to tell nairalanders - and its well known that lawyer and his bunch of goons own the property section, ONLY their posts make frontpage, and any solid real estate guy is treated like Bokoharam threat: an issue I've raised with Seun many times, maybe he's too busy to just give this close attention). Its horrible when people trying to eek out a living are getting this kind of treatment. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

Sanchez01: But that is where we are in Nigeria. Where are law enforcement agencies online, they work on those numbers provided and catch these thieves. Too bad. More topics like this should make FP, not one cartoon topic or 10 reasons Women divorce men etc. If you have any services to render and I call your number, you sound funny, I look for an alternative solution that is very transparent immediately. |

aspirebig:I strongly the end part of your post should apply. I should look elsewhere the moment the person on the other end is acting suspicious. Nigeria is fast becoming a breeding ground for kidnappers. |
